The 2012 Hugo Award winners will be announced on Sunday evening, September 2, at a formal ceremony in the Hyatt Regency Grand Ballroom....

The Hugo Award ceremony will start at 8 p.m. and will be broadcast live around the world via Ustream at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/worldcon1. In addition, the official Hugo Awards site (http://www.TheHugoAwards.org) will provide live text coverage via CoverItLive. The CoverItLive broadcast will be hosted by former Worldcon Co-Chairman Kevin Standlee and Campbell Award Nominee Mur Lafferty.

I fear I'm not going to get to bed very early that night. With more than one forum member nominated for an award--or several awards--it should be fun!

My only question now is which stream do I follow... Decisions, decisions. Or perhaps my broadband connection is up to managing both!

If I try that text channel though I'd better keep a tight hold of the Gator or she might end up trying to mud wrestle Neil Gaiman or China Mieville or something, and that would be deeply troubling.
